PRODUCT RESEARCH / SAFETY
Collagen is the main structural protein of various connective tissues and body parts in animals and human. These include key organs including the lenses of the eye, artery walls, bones and intestine. Out of 28 known types, Collagen type 2 provides essential nutrients for complete joint support and youthful skin.
As we age, the body’s ability to make the collagen type 2 peaks at age 18 and slows down at age 40. As a result, joints are damaged and worn away. Osteoarthritis is degeneration of joint cartilage and underlying bone due to loss of connective tissues.
Why hydrolyzed collagen from chicken is a good source?
Hydrolyzed collagen is rich in pure forms of essential amino acid in high concentration. It plays three key functions.
1. Hydrolyzed collagen helps to reduce joint pain associated with osteoarthritis. Scientists believe this is due to hydrolyzed collagen accumulating in the cartilage, and stimulating collagen production by chondrocytes.
2. Hydrolyzed collagen promotes joint healthy by strengthening and maintaining the cartilage and joint complex. This stimulates chondrocytes, key cells in collagen production.
3. Several studies show that a daily intake of hydrolyzed collagen increases bone mass density. It is suggested that hydrolyzed collagen stimulates osteoblast activity, increasing bone mass production.
